What should be considered in the pump discharge pipe?

It may be necessary to connect a control valve to the discharge pipe in order to adjust the flow and head. This control valve should be close to the pump. By connecting a check valve between the pump and the control valve on the discharge pipe, reverse flow in the discharge line can be prevented. If the head of the pump is more than 10 m or the pump discharge line is quite long, then it is necessary to protect the pump against water hammers during standstill. The pump cannot afford water hammer. In order to prevent reverse flow and protect the pump from water hammers, a check valve must be connected on the discharge pipe between the pump and the isolation valve. The check valve is placed between the pump and the valve, thus preventing the pump from reversing in case of unexpected engine failures or reverse flows. Conical reduction should be used for pipe diameter enlargements in the discharge line. The pump discharge installation should be supported from the floor or ceiling in a way that does not put a load on the pump.

Centrifugal pump electrical connection

We can collect the points to be considered in the electrical connection of the pump under a few items.
• It is recommended that only authorized electricians make the electrical connection.
• It is recommended that only authorized electricians make the electrical connection.
• The safety precautions in the pump’s safety instructions must be strictly followed.
• Before starting the pump assembly, make sure that all power connections are disconnected.
• Care must be taken while laying the energy cables. It is important that these cables do not come into contact with the piping, pump and motor casings.
• Before making the electrical connections of the motor, the pump shaft should be rotated by hand and it should be thoroughly checked whether the pump rotor rotates freely.
• Be sure to check the motor grounding connection. The electrical connection types may differ according to the power of the motor, power source and connection type, so be sure to follow the necessary procedures before making the electrical connection.
You can find all the remaining detailed information about the points to be considered in pump assembly in the pump user manual. You can safely assemble your pump according to the instructions.
